Bed and breakfasts and stays in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence
Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, a lively town below the Alpilles
A central base in the Alpilles
Saint-Rémy-de-Provence lies at the foot of the northern side of the Alpilles, about twenty kilometers south of Avignon. The town combines an animated old center, shopping streets, terraces, markets and quick access to the landscapes of the massif.
This position makes it a practical base for alternating heritage, villages, olive-tree roads and excursions towards Les Baux-de-Provence, Eygalières, Maussane, Fontvieille or the Rhône valley.
Glanum, Les Antiques and Saint-Paul-de-Mausole
A short distance from the center, the ancient site of Glanum recalls the Roman depth of Saint-Rémy. Les Antiques, with the triumphal arch and mausoleum, stand at the entrance to the road leading into the Alpilles and towards Les Baux-de-Provence.
Nearby, Saint-Paul-de-Mausole remains closely linked to Vincent Van Gogh’s stay. The surrounding landscapes, cypresses, olive trees and pale ridges of the Alpilles inspired part of his work.
Heritage, markets and Provençal traditions
The Musée des Alpilles, housed in a Renaissance mansion, helps explain the relationship between local people, agricultural crafts and the land. The market, local festivals, transhumance and bull-related traditions give Saint-Rémy a life that extends well beyond the tourist season.
Staying in a bed and breakfast in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence lets you enjoy the center on foot, then quickly reach the paths of the Alpilles or nearby villages. The town offers a good balance between animation, heritage and direct access to the Provençal countryside.
